Re: Does the HP E5406 zl Switch Chassis (J8697A) support the 10 GE modules like J9538A?

Yes, there are several options:

HP 8-port 10GBASE-T v2 zl Module J9546A
HP 4-port 10GbE CX4 zl Module J8708A
HP 4-port 10GbE X2 zl Module J8707A
HP 4-port 10GbE SFP+ zl Module J9309A
HP 8-port 10GbE SFP+ v2 zl Module J9538A
HP 20p GT PoE+ / 2p SFP+ v2 zl Module J9536A
HP 20-port GT PoE+/4-port SFP v2 zl Mod J9535A

That switch will support v1 and v2 modules. It will not support v3 modules. I would highly recommend v2 modules.

For more info, see the QuickSpecs: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12436_na/12436_na.pdf

Note: the part number J8697A is the chassis itself whereas the switch part numbers in the QuickSpecs includes other parts like power supplies, management modules, and interconnect modules.
